I might try it with Ibarra "Mexican Chocolate"
Do you add egg yolks? or egg whites? In the recipe it says yolks in the helpful hint it says white....hmmmm
We made these for our blog (www.thebittenword.com) and highly recommend them. They're a perfect summer dessert: cool, delicious and incredibly easy. We're anxious to try them with dark chocolate as well!
